Additional Information :

On October 31, 1996, Pierre attended a Halloween party held at the now defunct Original Six Sports Bar located at 14 Oxford Street in the Town of Richmond Hill.  Over 200 patrons attended the bar that night.

When he was ready to leave, Pierre called his mother from the pay phone outside of the bar.  The two made arrangements for Pierre’s mother to pick him up from a nearby corner.  She had dropped him off at the bar earlier in the evening.

Pierre was last seen at approximately 2:00 a.m. on November 1, 1996.  His poncho was later found under the table here he had been sitting that night.

Foul play is strongly suspected in his disappearance.
